Carbon fiber gas door available?

I was wondering if there was a company that makes (or can sell this seperate) for me. I have some damage on my stock gas door, seeing as how I just bought a CF taillight cover it would fit the montego blue on carbon combo im going for :P

IMO, a carbon fiber gas door (in the middle of a painted surface)...looks like a$$.
This is solely because the surface area (of the panel) is quite large w/ nothing around it.

For areas such as a center console where there are little buttons and other stuff around it to "accessorize" the area...that is fine.

But for a clean surface...to have a carbon fiber piece in the middle of nowhere...looks like a$$.

Just my opinion. Others may disagree.

Unbelievable.

I can't get a CF sunroof made, which might actually have some weight/performance benefit, but you can get a ******* gas door for $115.
